Pilgrims and Pioneers: The Woes of Winter!! Praying for the Kitty!

Welcome To Pilgrims and Pioneers!

After many years of researching my family geneaology I have been lucky enough to discover actual information about my relatives that lived in the Pilgrim Era and the Pioneer Era- while many people also have realtives from those eras- many do not know their names or where they lived- actually seeing the proof in print makes you much more aware of who they really were.
After discovering these relatives it of course made me curious to learn more about the eras that they lived in and what their lives were like as, the history I learned in grade school had long since been forgotten.
I decided to start this blog for others who are also interested in these eras.
Some of the information here will be actual facts about my realtives and some will be information about the eras in general that I have found on the web.
I hope you will enjoy traveling back in time with me!

The Woes of Winter!! Praying for the Kitty!

Wednesday morning we woke up to 6" of new snow- we already had about 18" on the ground.
This maorning the temperature had fallen to 21 degrees below zero!
I have been feeding a stray cat that wondered in about a month ago. The garge door has frozen shut with just a small opening so the cat can squeeze in there to get out of the wind but there is really nothing for her to snuggle down into for warmth. Yesterday I threw a baby sized fleece blanket through the crack- but I can't tell if she is burrowing into it.
She was alive & wanting to be fed this morning- but it is supposed to get down to 30 below zero tonight- I hope she is waiting to be fed in the morning!
